Description

Jeff Schwab from Information Technology at Purdue (ITaP): Big changes are coming to the Internet. As predicted many years ago, the world is running out of IP addresses for the Internet, numbers that currently look like 192.168.1.100. Fewer than 5% of the "Internet Protocol version 4" addresses (IPv4) are left to be assigned. Jeff will give us an introduction to IPv6 and help us understand how setting up your computer network and its connection to the Internet will change.
